"He's going to lose so decisively in November," Carville predicted while appearing on the Daily Beast podcast. According to Carville, he says only one thing Trump will do: bail on the presidency, and asked Vice President JD Vance for some help. He calls in JD Vance, and he says, 'JD, I've decided I'm going to resign, I'm going to go back. You're going to be the president, but your first act, that I have right here, as soon as you're sworn in, you're going to sign a pardon – pardon me for everything imaginable.'" Sworn-in President Gerald Ford ended up issuing him a pardon.
